“I
don’t have time” is probably the most common excuse used not to workout. But surprisingly
these people find time to sit on the sofa and watch Eastenders of an evening or
socialise over a glass of wine. And I’m not suggesting for one minute you
shouldn’t be able to do these things, but if you’re consistently doing them and
avoiding exercise not only your waistline will suffer, your health will too.
The NHS recommend “at least 150
minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) of moderate-intensity aerobic activity such as
cycling or fast walking every week, and muscle-strengthening activities on two
or more days that work all
major muscle groups.”
If
you can’t possibly find the time to commit to this amount of exercise a week,
an app called ‘Daily Workouts’ is perfect for busy people who don’t have the
time. You can exercise in as little as five minutes, the first level is free and you can workout wherever you go. Try getting out of this one...
The
app has six exercise options; Ab, Arm, Butt, Cardio, Leg and Full workout. You have the choice to workout for 5, 7.5 or
10 minutes. Alternatively if you wish to increase the length of your workout, I suggest doing each exercise option for 10 minutes giving you a total body workout.
There
are three levels to choose from. Level one consists of basic moves and is
perfect for beginners. However if like you’re a gym bunny like myself you will have to purchase level 2 and 3 for tougher exercises. If
you’re already hitting the gym after work, this is a fab way to tone target
areas and feel an immediate effect.
This
app has been part of my daily morning routine. As much as I feel inclined to
stay in bed for an extra 10 minutes, I decide against it and instead do 10
minutes of exercise. Thanks to this app I don’t feel like I’m dragging my arse
up the tube escalators.
Everyone
has a spare 5-10 minutes a day and I guarantee you it will lift your mood on a Monday
morning. Start the week positive and download the app today!
